. stay silly pibble iron-on patch

I think this message resonates with me cause I'm a grown man who still likes the same things as a 5 year old. but that's not a bad thing I think, its important to keep the small joys in life. so much of life under late stage capitalism is being desensitized to emotion, both positive and negative ones. you become "normal", and normal people dont cry over tragedies and dont laugh and scream in joy over a little dog with a propeller hat. but we have to try. the moment we lose our emotions and our childlike wonder is when we become nothing but corporate slaves. Joy is an act of pure resistance and love. 

yes im selling you an item right now, and am therefore participating under capitalism. unfortunately joy doesnt pay my rent. but be certain that this patch was made with joy and love (and a lot of sweat, because of the recent heat wave). so its resistance in a small way, i guess? I tried 👍 you should still get it, i think this pibble looks so damn stupid and I have maternal feelings towards him. give him a kiss on the belly for me, ok?

Iron-On Patch Instructions:

Check the care label before applying the patch to see if the fabric can be ironed. Do not apply to heat-sensitive materials. If unsure, test the iron on a hidden part of the garment.

Set your iron to the cotton setting with the steam turned off. Place the patch adhesive side down, cover it with a thin cloth or baking paper, and press firmly for ~30 seconds without moving the iron. If possible, turn the garment inside out and press the back of the patch for another ~30 seconds.

Allow the patch to cool down completely before touching the garment. Wait at least 24 hours before washing. For the best hold, sewing around the edge of the patch can be helpful.
